COMMERCIAL PIPE SIZES AND WALL THICKNESSES
This table lists standard pipe sizes and wall thicknesses, or specifically:
1. Traditional standard weight, extra strong and durable extra strong pipe.
2. Pipe wall thickness in American Standard B36.10 for carbon steel.
3. Pipe wall thickness in ASTM Specification A409 and American Standard
B36.19 and applicable only to corrosion resistant materials.
Note: All dimensions in inches and thicknesses are nominal or average
wall thickness. Actual thickness may be as much as 12.5% under
nominal due to mill tolerance.

ALIGNMENT OF PIPE
Proper alignment is important if a piping system is to be correctly
fabricated.
Poor alignment may result in welding difficulties and a system that does
not function properly.
Welding rings may be employed to assure proper alignment as well as the
correct welding gap. In addition to using welding rings, some simple
procedures can be followed to assist the pipe fitter. Below and on the
following page are alignment procedures commonly used by todays
craftsmen.
PIPETOPIPE
1. Level one length of pipe
using spirit level
2. Bring lengths together leaving
only small welding gap
3. Place spirit level over both pipes as shown and maneuver unpositioned
length until both are level
4. Tack weld top and bottom
5. Rotate pipe 90
6. Repeat procedure
45 ELBOW-TO-PIPE
1. Level pipe using spirit level
2. Place fitting to pipe leaving small
welding gap
3. Place 45" spirit level on face of elbow
and maneuver elbow until bubble is centered
4. Tack weld in place
90 ELBOW.TO-PIPE
1. Level pipe using spirit level
2. Place fitting to pipe leaving small
welding gap
3. Place spirit level on face of elbow and maneuver elbow until level
4. Tack weld in place
148
ALIGNMENT OF PIPE
TEE-TO-PIPE
1. Level pipe using spirit level
2. Place tee to pipe leaving small
welding gap
3. Place spirit level on face of tee and
maneuver tee until level
4. Tack weld in place
FLANGE-TO-PIPE
1. Bring flange to pipe end leaving small
welding gop
2. Align toptwo holes of flange with spirit level
3. Tack weld in place
4. Center square on face of flange as
shown
5. Tack weld in place
6. Check sides in same way

BUTT WELD: A circumferential weld in pipe fusing the abutting pipe walls
completely from inside wall to outside wall.
CREEP: The plastic flow of pipe within a system; the permanent set in
metal caused by stresses at high temperatures. Generally associated with
a time rate of deformation.
DIAMETER OF A CIRCLE: A straight line drawn through the center of a
circle from one extreme edge to the other. Equal to twice the radius.
DUCTILITY: The property of elongation, above the elastic limit, but under
the tensile strength.
A measure of ductility is the percentage of elongation of the fractured
piece over its original length.
160
USEFUL DEFINITIONS
EROSION: The gradual destruction of metal or other material by the
abrasive action of liquids, gases, solids or mixtures thereof.
SOCKET FITTING: A fitting used to join pipe in which the pipe is inserted
into the fitting. A fillet weld is then made around the edge of the fitting and
the outside wall of the pipe.
SOLDERING: A method of joining metals using fusible alloys, usually tin
and lead, having melting points under 700F
STRAIN: Change of shape or size of a body produced by the action of a
stress.
STRESS: The intensity of the internal, distributed forces which resist a
change in the form of a body. When external forces act on a body they are
resisted by reactions within the body which are termed stresses.
TENSILE STRESS: One that resists a force tending to pull a body apart.
COMPRESSIVE STRESS: One that resists a force tending to crush a body.
SHEARING STRESS: One that resists a force tending to make one layer of
a body slide across another layer.
TORSIONAL STRESS: One that resists forces tending to twist a body.

WIRE ROPE
OVERVIEW
Strength of wire ropes vary, depending on the material from which the
individual strands are made and the method used in forming the cable,
ranging between 30 and 100 tons per square inch. Primarily there are 3
classes of wire rope:
(1) Iron Iron wire is soft with low tensile strength of 30 to 40 tons
per square inch. Commonly used for drum type elevator cables
and to some extent for derrick guys; being replaced by low-
carbon steel wire in these uses.
(2) Cast Steel May have a tensile strength up to 90 tons per
square inch and because of its greater strength is generally used
for hoisting purposes. To check quickly whether a piece of wire
is iron or cast steel, bend it. Iron will bend easily and take a long
time to regain its original shape, while cast steel will be harder
to bend and will snap back to its original shape very quickly.
(3) Plow Steel - Plow steel wire rope is made from high grade, open
hearth furnace steel and has an average tensile strength of 110
tons per square inch. This is the best and safest wire rope for
cranes, derricks, dredges and slings or straps for heavy loads.
LUBRICATION WIRE ROPE Wire rope is usually larger
All wire rope, whether used indoors or than the nominal diameter
out, should be considered as a group of and may exceed the nominal
moving wires constantly rubbing against diameter by the amounts
one another. The resulting friction causes

ANVIL DESIGN SERVICES
Anvil offers both Basic and Extended Services Contact your Anvil
representative for more information.
BASIC SERVICES
Anvil Design Services produces fabrication drawings and Bill of Ma-
terials of mechanical room piping 212" and larger including chillers,
heat exchangers, boilers, and pumps from contractor supplied flow
diagrams, mechanical drawings, and approved submittals and
specifications.
Initially, Anvil personnel meet with you to determine your piping
preferences. The project scope and fee is agreed upon in a Design
Services contract.
The plans and specifications are then interpreted in terms of
economy, accuracy, and compliance. We may suggest modifica-
tions in arrangement, construction, equipment location, or product
to attain the desired results. Piping layouts are carefully analyzed
to determine whether further economies can be attained in the pip-
ing system.
Piping drawings are then prepared to determine the most efficient
pipe routing, taking equipment location and any interferences into
consideration. Preliminary prints are sent to you for revision or ap-
proval.
Upon approval, (4) sets of drawings with tags and Bills of Materials
of the included system components are sent to you.

With Basic Services, you can plan the mechanical room. The pre-
liminary drawings can be taken to coordination meetings with other
trades to reserve space by getting in first. Also, your field su-
pervisor can spend more time supervising and not calculating pipe

lengths and pipe routing. The components can be grouped from
the finished drawings for better workflow planning.
We usually reduce fitting counts by 10%-15% by moving equip-
ment whenever possible, usually less than a foot. The more move-
ment that is allowed, the more savings can be realized.
EXTENDED SERVICES
Extended Services include any scope beyond Basic Services. There
are many different types of services offered as extended:
BOM by component (pump, chiller) or by system
Unique Tagging adding unique tags to components
Air Handling Units with associated ductwork
Single Line Routing non-dimensional
Distribution Piping
Dimensioned Floor Penetrations
AWWA Piping - Total Scope
